For example, I often see Buyers purchase property thinking there is a $1,000 deposit but then the tenant claims it was $2,000 because they paid the last month's rent.

Plus, they wouldn’t be able to charge extra rent or additional security deposits specifically for pets.Just a heads-up – these new rules wouldn’t apply to rental agreements signed before January 1, 2025.Where Are We in the Legislative Process?

Deposit Insurance Concerns: In many countries, bank deposits are insured up to a certain limit by governmental agencies.

We kept the security deposit of $4100.

Consider all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

Should I deduct the cost from their security deposit or is it considered normal wear and tear?

My main question is…i know i pay a deposit and we have an agreed upon term.

At the moment, damages were relatively light to the property, and I do have a security deposit that I can use For those and to also apply what’s left over for missing rents.

Here is the scenario:The unit is a 3/2 duplex unit for $1550 per month with a $3100 Refundable Deposit.
